yes, two posts today – LOL…don’t get used to it, tee hee This one is Stampin Up Blended Bloom Zentangled... I saw Lydia posted a Black White and Gray challenge on the last day of the “Dare to Get Dirty” week over at Splitcoaststampers, so I had to play…..at great expense I might add, seeing as my Holiday Catalog pre-order arrived last night, LOL….I guess I could have tangled some trees, LOL….
Anyway, out came the Blended Bloom and my black and gray Stampin Write Markers.
and this happened……I could doodle the day away, I love this technique so much….
Here is a little close up for you. I stayed pretty basic with the “tangles” and I like to repeat them every 3 or 4 petals to add some uniformity to the image I’m creating. Usually I “tangle” in just black and white, so it was fun to add some gray to the mix….
What are Zentangles? doodles that are the same and repeated within a space, for example here, each petal.
One tip, be very careful what background paper you mount this on, LOL….I tried a few different pieces from the Back to Black Designer Paper, and some just give you “crazy eyes”, there is so much going on, LOL….so I went with a simple light colored one.
